Antoine is on his own at the docks. He found a massive seal with not one, but TWO entanglements around his neck: packing strap and a piece of rope. The seal is very big for one rescuer and he puts up a massive fight. Even one of the dock workers comes and offers help. Antoine appreciates the offer, but he knows that this bull is not a "starter seal", and there is a good chance that somebody would end up injured. He prefers to put only himself in danger.
The seal is immobilised by the net and Antoine gives the seal a few minutes to fight the net and then calm down to a point where he can cut the entanglements. We do not often see seals with several entanglements at once, but it can be expected at the docks, so close to many fishing vessels and fish processing factories. There is a lot of rubbish floating in the ocean and our seals are unfortunately often the victims. 🦭
